    Peace mirjamnur,

    Have you tested a few examples using the above site?
    e.g. woman leaves $1,000 husband and 3 daughters

    http//quransmessage.com/articles/inheritance%20FM3.htm

    Is the deceased a male = No
    Is there a spouse, parents or any descents = Yes
    Are parents still alive = No
    Is there a husband = Yes
    Are there any children = Yes (husband receives 1/4)

    Are there only daughters = Yes
    Is there only one daughter = No (daughters share from 2/3)

    1/4 + 2/3 = 11/12, who gets remaining 1/12 or $1000 x 1/12 = $83.33?

    Let's also try woman leaves $1,000 husband, 3 daughters, mother, father

    1/4 husband $250
    2/3 daughters $1000 x 2/3 = $666.67
    1/6 mother $1000 x 1/6 = $166.67
    1/6 father $1000 x 1/6 = $166.67

    = 1 + 1/4 or $1,250 too much or short $250!

    Do you now see the problem with all these sites and translations?

    e.g. woman leaves $1,000 husband and 3 daughters

    husband 1/4= 3/12
    parents 1/6=2./12
    daughters =7/12= 21/36 everyone 7/36

    when she leaves husband and 2 daughters and 1 son
    husband 1/4
    parents 1/6
    daughters and son 7/12 =28/48
    daugther 1= 7/48
    daughter 2=7/48
    son 14/48

    when she leaves husband and 3 daughters and one son
    husband 1/4=3/12 (250$)
    parents 1/6= 2/12 (166.66$) the rest will be 7/12
    three daughters and the son together 7/12= 21/36
    daughters 2/3= 14/36
    son= 1/3= 7/36

    Salam what you think about? peace

      Salam
      check out this link
      http//quransmessage.com/articles/inheritance%20FM3.htm
      peace )

      Peace Mirjumanur - Thanks for the link. I think it is an honest effort. To be fair to the author of the site, he does seem to recognise that there is room for discussion and ain't a case of my way or the highway type presentation.

      I noted the opening sentence on the top of the diagram.

      "The illustration below attempts to best capture the inheritance directives in the Quran. It is left for the reader to consult the verses mentioned and scrutinise them with a view to understand the topic deeply. The illustration merely intends to provide an overview and a cue for further study"

      Inheritance is a really important and really involved topic. I reckon it always has been. I look forward to it being discussed here and agree with Noon waalqalami that it should be considered as a sticky! I'd like to work out my own inheritance properly according to the Quran! Peace

        e.g. woman leaves $1,000 husband and 3 daughters

        husband 1/4= 3/12
        parents 1/6=2./12
        daughters =7/12= 21/36 everyone 7/36

        Peace mirjamnur,

        You gave the 3 daughters 7/12 and did not follow the instructions in Qur'an?

        411 so if be females above two (feminine) so for them two thirds

        2/3 = 2/9 x 3 daughters
        1/3 = 1/9 husband + 2/9 parents (1/9 mother + 1/9 father)

        411 to parents 1/6 if walad/son = false
        412 to husband 1/2 if no child/born = false; 1/4 if walad/son = false

        Therefore, in this case, husband and parents are unstated or variable who share remaining 1/3 equally.

        when she leaves husband and 2 daughters and 1 son
        husband 1/4
        parents 1/6
        daughters and son 7/12 =28/48
        daugther 1= 7/48
        daughter 2=7/48
        son 14/48

        411 directs you The God in your children to the male like share the two (feminine)
        411 and for their parents to each one from them the sixth from what left if is to person walad/son
        412 so if is for them walad/son so for you the fourth

        1/4 or 3/12 husband
        1/3 or 4/12 parents = 1/6 mother + 1/6 father
        ......... 5/12 children = 5/24 son + 5/24 daughters (5/48 x 2 daughters); if children mixed 21 ratio male to female

        when she leaves husband and 3 daughters and one son
        husband 1/4=3/12 (250$)
        parents 1/6= 2/12 (166.66$) the rest will be 7/12
        three daughters and the son together 7/12= 21/36
        daughters 2/3= 14/36
        son= 1/3= 7/36

        See above 1/4 husband; 1/3 parents (1/6 each); 5/12 children = 2/12 son + 3/12 three daughters, 1/12 each

        Salam what you think about?

        Follow exactly as stated in Qur'an and you'll be fine; perhaps be a bit more neat/orderly as well.

        Inheritance is a really important and really involved topic. I reckon it always has been. I look forward to it being discussed here and agree with Noon waalqalami that it should be considered as a sticky! I'd like to work out my own inheritance properly according to the Quran! Peace

        Peace Pleiades,

        Yes this topic should be a sticky; it teaches logic, how to read Qur'an using cross-reference and context to extrapolate certain words and to take the best non-contradicting meaning.

          Peace,

          Most reciters have the correct sequence for verse 411 walad/son followed by waladun child/born.

          http//www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4tyaki83aY
          Scroll to beginning of verse 411 at 0429 minute

          412 (0545 minute) they have incorrect and reversed walad/son followed by waladaun child/born.

          The above is an obvious contradiction; the husband cannot receive both 1/2 and 1/4!

          1/2 husband if no son
          1/4 husband if child/born

          If only daughters (no son = true) 1/2 husband
          If only daughters (if child = true) 1/4 husband

          4176 11237 minute, most have 1st correct if no waladun child/born, 2nd is incorrect if no walad/son.

            Salam

            411 directs you The God in your children to the male like share the two (feminine) so if be females above two (feminine) so for them two thirds what left and if she was one so for her the half and for their parents to each one from them the sixth from what left if is to person walad/son so if not is to person waladun child/born and heirs person?s parents (if only parents) so to his mother the third so if is to person ikh'watun brothers/siblings (at least one male present) so to his mother the sixth from after a will have made in it or judgment your parents and your children not you know which of them closer to you benefit obligation from The God indeed The God is Knowing Wise

            412 and for you half what left your spouse?s if not is for them waladun child/born so if is for them walad/son so for you the fourth from what they left from after a will they made in it or judgment and for them the fourth from what you left if not is to you waladun child/born so if is to you walad/son so for them the eight from what you left from after a will you made in it or judgment and if is a man inherited kallatan (fatherless spouseless) or woman and has a brother or sister so for each one from them the sixth so if they were more from that so they partners in the third from after a will is recommended in it or judgment not harmful a will from The God and The God Knowing Forbearing

            You gave the 3 daughters 7/12 and did not follow the instructions in Qur'an?

            411 so if be females above two (feminine) so for them two thirds

            411 directs you The God in your children to the male like share the two (feminine) so if be females above two (feminine) so for them two thirds what left and if she was one so for her the half

            Because i understand normal case male and female =male double from female, when more then two for them 2/3
            abnormal only female they become all= the rest all the 7/12

            411 to parents 1/6 if walad/son = false

            yes i see, to each from them 1/6 that will be 2/6 thats right? or 4/6?

            4.12...so if is for them walad/son so for you the fourth from what they left
            why you say
            1/4 if walad/son = false
            ? walad here means not children? why you translate it one time with son and other time with children?

            Follow exactly as stated in Qur'an and you'll be fine; perhaps be a bit more neat/orderly as well.

            isA i will try it
            the best solution to give in the lifetime much sadaqa , then we will not have anything to study ;D

              Peace mirjamnur,

              why you say ? walad here means not children? why you translate it one time with son and other time with children?

              412 and for you half what left your spouse?s if not is for them waladun child/born so if is for them walad/son so for you the fourth

              The above is the only non-contradicting meaning. Example case husband, 3 daughters

              These are all the possibilities ...

              412 1/2 if no son (true), 1/4 if child (true) both true its not known what to give husband 1/2 or 1/4?
              412 1/2 if no son (true), 1/4 if son (false) 1/2 husband + 2/3 daughters = 1 + 1/6 or 1/6 shortfall?

              412 1/2 if no child (false), 1/4 if child (true) 1/4 husband + 2/3 daughters = 11/12 or 1/12 excess?
              412 1/2 if no child (false), 1/4 if son (false) both false, husband unstated/variable gets remainder.

              1 - 2/3 (2/9 x 3 daughters) = 1/3 husband

                Salam Noonwalqalami

                411 directs you The God in your children to the male like share the two (feminine) so if be females above two (feminine) so for them two thirds what left and if she was one so for her the half and for their parents to each one from them the sixth from what left if is to person walad/son so if not is to person waladun child/born and heirs person?s parents (if only parents) so to his mother the third so if is to person ikh'watun brothers/siblings (at least one male present) so to his mother the sixth from after a will have made in it or judgment your parents and your children not you know which of them closer to you benefit obligation from The God indeed The God is Knowing Wise.

                directs you The God in your CHILDREN (waladakum) to the male (al thakkar) like share the two feminine(al unthaiyn)...

                God is clear in his testimony. He uses in 4.11 walad for children and clearly differentiated by Thakkar and Unthain the sexes.
                It can be assumed that walad in this matter, the word refers to the children and not sons.
                Then everything is much easier

                now the example husband three daughters

                4.12 husband become 1/4 because there are childrens
                the daughters become all the rest, because there is no boy. i understand the 2/3 for the girls, when there are males also
                because why 2/3 for whom the rest??? this would be illogical what you have proved...

                wait, because to much Math in the morning Allah may give me knowledge
                peace

                  Peace mirjamnur,

                  Take your time and clearly think it through before posting; it cannot be 2/3 for the girls when there are males.

                  It was explained in beginning of thread the word can mean son, child, or born/begot...
                  37152 begot The God and indeed they surely liars

                  Example mother, father, husband, 3 daughters, son

                  If we give 3 daughters 2/3 and the parents 1/3 leaves nothing to give the husband and son.

                  411 directs you The God in your children to the male like share the two (feminine) and for their parents to each one from them the sixth from what left if is to person walad/son

                  412 and for you half what left your spouse?s if not is for them waladun child/born so if is for them walad/son so for you the fourth

                  If children mixed 21 ratio male to female always the case for mixed children or siblings.
                  If son = true 1/6 mother
                  If son = true 1/6 father
                  If son = true 1/4 husband

                  1 - 1/6 mother - 1/6 father - 1/4 husband = 5/12 children at 21 ratio male to female (1/12 x 3 daughters + 1/6 son)

                      salaam Nun,

                      Have you posted this on anti-Islam websites and asked them to refute? If so, please provide the links. Thanks.

                      If you have, and all attempts to refute have failed, then I am willing to offer help to develop a dedicated site for this, i.e. an online calculator. I have experience in such projects, e.g. AreYouMuslim.com, Learn-About-Islam.com, QuranConnection.com etc.

                      All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

                        It is quite funny to see my video used here as a challenge to the Koranic inheritance guidelines )

                        The problem is simple there are numerous calculators on the net concerning Islamic inheritance rules and laws. None of them really follow the rulings in the Koran and they differ between each other.

                        The reason is that a simple example will show that the mathematics used is insufficient to create a realistic solution, which leaves only one possibility the sentences in question are merely allegorical and are there to serve not as accurate calculations but concepts.

                            Sure, I was under the impression everybody knew it.

                            Calculate the inheritance for a wife, 3 daughters and 2 parents of a man who died.

                            1/8 wife/wives 3/24 have children, then for them of what you leave an eighth
                            2/3 daughters 16/24 women above two, then for them two-thirds of what he leaves
                            2/6 parents 8/24 parents to each one of the two the sixth of what he leaves

                            = 3 + 16 + 8 = 27/24

                              salaam Nun,

                              Have you posted this on anti-Islam websites and asked them to refute? If so, please provide the links. Thanks.

                              If you have, and all attempts to refute have failed, then I am willing to offer help to develop a dedicated site for this, i.e. an online calculator. I have experience in such projects, e.g. AreYouMuslim.com, Learn-About-Islam.com, QuranConnection.com etc.

                              Peace Wakas,

                              Thank you for making this thread a sticky; it's for the benefit of those who seek understanding for their own souls and if they truly desire they'll be quided here. I have little interest in evangelizing or proving anything to anyone especially annoying missionaries, followers of hearsay, math deficiate numerologists or the godless aroused at miss-leading others into the abysss chanting...

                              "Our nada who art in nada, nada be thy name thy kingdom nada thy will be nada in nada as it is in nada. Give us this nada our daily nada and nada us our nada as we nada our nadas and nada us not into nada but deliver us from nada; pues nada . Hail nothing full of nothing, nothing is with thee."

                                It is quite funny to see my video used here as a challenge to the Koranic inheritance guidelines )

                                The problem is simple there are numerous calculators on the net concerning Islamic inheritance rules and laws. None of them really follow the rulings in the Koran and they differ between each other.

                                The reason is that a simple example will show that the mathematics used is insufficient to create a realistic solution, which leaves only one possibility the sentences in question are merely allegorical and are there to serve not as accurate calculations but concepts.

                                Hello, peace and welcome StopS,

                                Your video was funny too and inaccurate according to Qur'an. In addition, the other sites and people that you were debating are clueless on the subject of inheritance verses, cannot follow simple instructions, and lack basic IF THEN ELSE logic.

                                Sure, I was under the impression everybody knew it.

                                Calculate the inheritance for a wife, 3 daughters and 2 parents of a man who died.

                                1/8 wife/wives 3/24 have children, then for them of what you leave an eighth
                                2/3 daughters 16/24 women above two, then for them two-thirds of what he leaves
                                2/6 parents 8/24 parents to each one of the two the sixth of what he leaves

                                = 3 + 16 + 8 = 27/24

                                All combinations and their appropriate mathamatical distributions were posted at beginning of this thread.

                                Here are the verses which if followed literally will give precise amounts without excess/shortfall.

                                411 directs you The God in your children to the male like share the two (feminine) so if be females above two (feminine) so for them two thirds what left and if she was one so for her the half and for their parents to each one from them the sixth from what left if is to person walad/son so if not is to person waladun child/born and heirs person?s parents (if only parents) so to his mother the third so if is to person ikh'watun brothers/siblings (at least one male present) so to his mother the sixth from after a will have made in it or judgment your parents and your children not you know which of them closer to you benefit obligation from The God indeed The God is Knowing Wise

                                412 and for you half what left your spouse?s if not is for them waladun child/born so if is for them walad/son so for you the fourth from what they left from after a will they made in it or judgment and for them the fourth from what you left if not is to you waladun child/born so if is to you walad/son so for them the eight from what you left from after a will you made in it or judgment and if is a man inherited kallatan (fatherless spouseless) or woman and has a brother or sister so for each one from them the sixth so if they were more from that so they partners in the third from after a will is recommended in it or judgment not harmful a will from The God and The God Knowing Forbearing

                                4176 they seek your ruling say The God gives you a ruling in al-kallati (the fatherless spouseless) if a person died is not to that person waladun child/born and has sister so for her half what left and he inherits it if not is to her waladun child/born so if were two (feminine) so to them the two thirds from what left and if they were ikh'watun brothers/siblings men/males and females so to the male like share the two (feminine) clarifies The God to you lest you stray and The God in every a thing Knowing

                                mother, father, husband/wife, 3 daughters 1/9 1/9 1/9 2/3

                                Calculate the inheritance for a wife, 3 daughters and 2 parents of a man who died.

                                411 so if be females above two (feminine) so for them two thirds
                                3 daughters = 2/3

                                411 and for their parents to each one from them the sixth from what left if is to person walad/son

                                IF son THEN each parent share = 1/6 ELSE parents share = variable/unstated
                                It's same as in case mother and son (1 - 1/6 mother = 5/6 son variable/unstated )

                                412... and for them the fourth from what you left if not is to you waladun child/born so if is to you walad/son so for them the eight

                                IF no child/born THEN wife share = 1/4 (false, there are daughters i.e. children)
                                ELSE IF son THEN wife share = 1/8 (false, no son)
                                Thus wife share for this case = variable/unstated

                                Therefore 1 - 2/3 (3 daughters, 2/9 each) = 1/3 (1/9 mother, 1/9 father, 1/9 wife)

                                  Could you drop the emotional garbage, please? Thanks. I would prefer a civilised discussion.

                                  You are playing games. Please don't.

                                  "And for his parents for each of them there is one-sixth of the inheritance if he has a child, but if he does not have a child and the parents are the heirs then for the mother one-third."

                                  The Arabic word "walad" has been variously translated as child, son, children and offspring by translators. However, there is universal agreement amongst the Sunni Muslim jurists that "walad" here refers to any child or agnatic grandchild (grandchild through son).

                                  If there is a child or agnatic grandchild amongst the heirs then each of the parents inherits one-sixth. In the absence of a child or agnatic grandchild the mother inherits one-third, the share of the father is not mentioned under these circumstances. The father in fact inherits as a residuary (a residuary heir gets whatever remains of the inheritance after the Quranic sharers have been allocated their shares, residuary heirs are generally male agnates) under these circumstances.

                                  http//www.kalamullah.com/fatwa13.html

                                  This fatwa also interprets and deviates from the decree in the Koran by insinuating that the father receives what is left, which not in the Koranic text.

                                  Another opinion says

                                  the Court stated simply that "so long as the deceased is survived by children, either male or female, the rights of inheritance of the deceased's blood relations, except for parents and spouse, are foreclosed". The only reasoning or authority cited in support of this interpretation was a brief reference to the views of Ibnu Abbas, one of the companions of the Prophet, who construed the word walad in Koran 4 176 as embracing both male and female children.

                                  Another one says

                                  The word 'walad' in in kana lahu walad (if he has children) and fa in lam ya kun lahu walad (if he does not have children) is used both for male and female children. In the Arabic language, this connotation is conventional and customary. Besides being used here, it has also been used subsequently where the shares of the spouses are stated. In this writer's opinion, in all these instances it has the same meaning. There is no contextual indication, intrinsic or extrinsic, to believe that the word has specifically been used for male children. Linguists maintain that it is used in the singular as well as the plural sense and, also, both for the masculine and the feminine gender. In all the cases mentioned, whether boys and girls in the indicated numbers are present or absent, these connotations of the word shall be considered understood.

                                  This means that your view of walad being a single boy is not universally accepted.

                                  Please show me where in the Koran it says that the inheritance is divided into shares which can be re-allocated?
                                  Where in my example is there a son?
                                  Please show me where in the Koran the 1/9 comes up.
                                  Where is the adherence of the text which says very explicitly "parents to each one of the two the sixth of what he leaves, if he has children" or "parents, a sixth share to each"???
                                  What happened to the decree for the wives "if you have children, then for them of what you leave an eighth"? Can 1/8 decided in the Koran, be changed to 1/9 by a human?

                                  What you also leave out is the "bequeath for their widows a year's maintenance and residence" stated in 2240, which is also not considered.

                                  Sorry, but your argument is based on the obfuscation of a word, which you are re-assigning a new meaning to and then following it up with re-interpretation.

                                    I do not care about the univeral opions or fatwa's of the ignorant and explained earlier that one of the issues has to do with walad/son; it can also mean waladun child/born/begot or offspring.

                                    What you also leave out is the "bequeath for their widows a year's maintenance and residence" stated in 2240, which is also not considered.

                                    2240 and the ones who die from you and leave spouse?s a will for their spouse?s matan provision to al-awli the cycle not driving out so if they leave so not blame on you in what they do in themselves from honorably and The God Mighty Wise

                                    Inheritance verses are applied separate (IF no will) and after all bequests are paid.

                                    Sorry, but your argument is based on the obfuscation of a word, which you are re-assigning a new meaning to and then following it up with re-interpretation.

                                    See above http//www.studyquran.co.uk/PRLonline.htm Waw-Lam-Dal = to beget, give birth

                                    37152 child/born/begot The God and indeed they surely liars
                                    347 said Lord how will be to me walad/son
                                    411 if is to person walad/son so if not is to person child/born/begot

                                    Plenty of examples 411 and 5417 to the male/remembrance (use context best non-contradicting meaning).

                                    Now carefully read and re-test your basic IF THEN ELSE logic... 3 daughters, parents, wife

                                    411 so if be females above two (feminine) so for them two thirds
                                    411 and for their parents to each one from them the sixth from what left if is to person walad/son
                                    412... and for them the fourth from what you left if not is to you waladun child/born/begot so if is to you walad/son so for them the eight

                                    IF no child/born THEN wife share = 1/4 (false, there are daughters i.e. children)
                                    ELSE IF son THEN wife share = 1/8 (false, no son)
                                    Thus wife share and parents for this case = variable

                                    Therefore 1 - 2/3 (3 daughters, 2/9 each) = 1/3 (1/9 mother, 1/9 father, 1/9 wife)

                                    Peace!

                                      And?

                                      What have you added or improved? Nothing. You just repeat your position and think it suddenly works by magic.
                                      On the one hand you show the multitude of meanings and then you assert that, when it suits you, it MUST only this.

                                      You come up with this faulty "IF THEN ELSE logic" and abort it in the very next line. Why do you insist on introducing a son? Only because it serves your purpose?

                                      I ask you some questions to try and narrow it down, but you can't answer them and choose to simply ignore them.

                                      Come on, stop being so dogmatic and boring and bring some real arguments.

                                        The verses distribute perfectly for every possible case...

                                        All your questions were answered -- do you want to try another example?

                                        Most the reciters have correct sequence for verse 411 walad/son followed by waladun child/born/begot.

                                        Surah 04 An-Nisaa Complete
                                        http//www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4tyaki83aY
                                        Scroll to verse 411 at 0429 minute, walad/son 0503 minute then waladun child/born/begot 0507 minute.

                                        That was to show slight difference in reading and we are to use the best (391 non-contradicting meaning.
                                        The case was 3 daughters, parents, and wife.

                                        Simply read exactly as stated and apply basic IF THEN ELSE logic what differentiates the human from cattle...

                                        411 directs you The God in your children to the male like share the two (feminine) so if be females above two (feminine) so for them two thirds what left and if she was one so for her the half and for their parents to each one from them the sixth from what left if is to person walad/son so if not is to person waladun child/born and heirs person?s parents (if only parents) so to his mother the third so if is to person ikh'watun brothers/siblings (at least one male present) so to his mother the sixth from after a will have made in it or judgment your parents and your children not you know which of them closer to you benefit obligation from The God indeed The God is Knowing Wise

                                        412 and for you half what left your spouse?s if not is for them waladun child/born so if is for them walad/son so for you the fourth from what they left from after a will they made in it or judgment and for them the fourth from what you left if not is to you waladun child/born so if is to you walad/son so for them the eight from what you left from after a will you made in it or judgment and if is a man inherited kallatan (fatherless spouseless) or woman and has a brother or sister so for each one from them the sixth so if they were more from that so they partners in the third from after a will is recommended in it or judgment not harmful a will from The God and The God Knowing Forbearing

                                        4176 they seek your ruling say The God gives you a ruling in al-kallati (the fatherless spouseless) if a person died is not to that person waladun child/born and has sister so for her half what left and he inherits it if not is to her waladun child/born so if were two (feminine) so to them the two thirds from what left and if they were ikh'watun brothers/siblings men/males and females so to the male like share the two (feminine) clarifies The God to you lest you stray and The God in every a thing Knowing

                                          peace StopS,

                                          I am disappointed in your replies to Nun.

                                          For example, you seem to imply that he did not answer any of your questions when he did, or at the very least, answered some/most. The right response from you should have been to explain why his answers did not satisfy.

                                          Here are some clear examples

                                          StopS said
                                          Where is the adherence of the text which says very explicitly "parents to each one of the two the sixth of what he leaves, if he has children"
                                          Why do you insist on introducing a son?

                                          Nun clearly explained why in reply 19, and then later.

                                          So the disagreement between you two is the meaning of "walad/waladun".

                                          You previously said "This means that your view of walad being a single boy is not universally accepted.". This implicitly admits that there are different views on this. Nun is one of those with a differing view.

                                          So you admit, indirectly, that theoretically "wld" could be taken as "son" or "children". So Nun's view is theoretically possible, according to you.

                                          The point you should be arguing is that whether this is a valid reading/recitation of Quran. Since Quran had no tashkeel/vocalisation initially, then it would seem so. If you have evidence to the contrary, please bring it forth.

                                          Perhaps Nun could have clarified he is alluding to different recitation/reading of Quran script, without vocalisation marks. I believe this is what he is saying. Nun, please correct me if I am wrong.

                                          And lastly, another example, you did not even refer to his answering of your statement on 2240 "What you also leave out is the "bequeath for their widows a year's maintenance and residence" stated in 2240, which is also not considered."
                                          Nun said "Inheritance verses are applied separate (IF no will) and after all bequests are paid."

                                          If you disagree, even though this seems fairly straightforward, please state why.

                                          In summary, if I have understood correctly, Nun's view is certainly unorthodox (nothing wrong with that however) but not impossible. If you can prove it is impossible, I am all ears.

                                          All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.
